Congratulations! It seems you have a very rare car with some documentation. I can't tell if it matches the serial number but pretty sure that the sticker does match the VIN number -- check that -- the number is on top of dash near windshield. I'll go back and check, but seems your interior is all original. The window sticker indicates w-34 option, and you can see the cold air intake. I have a few other specific questions that I wanted to ask you and maybe you can provide some pictures!

I believe that's the vacuum valve that controls the headlight grills.
And it certainly looks like W34 car to me.
Congratulations and good luck with it.

Yes, it might be that. I wasn't sure what valve system they had for the headlight doors, so thought it might just be for the headlamp switch. There will be a tie into the vacuum valve for the automatic headlamp door opening for W-34 though. Bill Payne probably knows.

Thanks.. I was able to snap the vacuum valve for the headlights back together and trace the vacuum lines and all seems to be functioning properly
